Not to be confused with the first book of the ''Literature/WarriorCats'' series. Compare with the film, ''Film/{{Wild}}'' starring Creator/ReeseWitherspoon, effectively the distaff version of this story, but with the woman approaching her soul journey with a bit more intelligence.

* BrutalHonesty: Touched on in the book, but commonly found in those who found his body, or the police who handled the investigation. The experienced hunters who found him make it clear they feel Chris owns all the blame for getting himself into such a situation. One of the state troopers who oversaw the investigation wrote a lengthy article for an Alaska newspaper where he flat-out states that what Chris did basically amounted to suicide.

* SpiritualSuccessor: ''Film/{{Wild}}'' is a later film about the true story of a woman in the 1990s with a messed up life of her own going on her own soul journey through the wilderness. However, she is noticeably smarter about her journey, not to mention that there is a difference between being in the middle of uncharted Alaskan wilderness, and being on a hiking trail regardless of how remote it is.
